Playstyle

Tariq channels storm and fury to deal immense damage to his enemies. He is a Melee Damage Dealer that builds Fury in combat and spends that Fury to unleash devastating power moves upon his foes. Tariq's greatest power is found in Thunder Call, an ability that causes Tariq to be enveloped in lightning for a time, as his attacks get enhanced with lightning damage and he himself casts chain lightning into the ranks of the enemies.
